Vikentia [17]3 years ago

The answer is: [-8, \infty)

Which can be written as: [-8, infinity) 

This is the interval from -8 to infinity. So -8 is our left most point on the number line and infinity being our right most. There is no boundary on the right side.

Note how the left side has a square bracket and the right side has a curved parenthesis. This isn't a typo. The square bracket tells the reader "include the endpoint -8 as part of the solution set". The parenthesis tells the reader "do NOT include the endpoint infinity as part of the solution set". 

Rule: infinity and negative infinity is always paired with a parenthesis because these aren't numbers. It's impossible to reach infinity, therefore it's impossible to include it in the set of values. If you could include it, then that implies you ran out of numbers.

David & his 2 brothers deliver papers. Each 1 can deliver a paper every 2 minutes, and all 3 deliver 147 papers. How long do
garri49 [273]
Well, each one takes two minutes, regardless of how many brothers there are. If it takes 2 minutes per paper, then the answer is simply 147*2. Which is 297 minutes. Even if one of them was delivering papers, the answer would be the same. These extra numbers are put in there to confuse you. Dont forget that, be careful what you read.
